Powell is no more a Republican than Hugo Chavez is Jewish. Other than be Bush’s Secretary of State, there’s absolutely nothing Republican about the man. The only “Republican” who would vote for Obama is one who has never been a Republican in the first place.

Powell can rant on and on about Cheney’s remarks, but he cannot show for a fact that Obama’s done anything to keep us safe.
